re: What’s with the inflated perception of Danny Etling on here lately?

Danny was decent, nothing notable. He manned an inept offensive scheme, and wasn’t a turnover machine. In the same breath, he wasn’t a “gunslinger” by any means, nor could he “kill” a defense with his legs.

Sentiment at the time was that he should remain the started (because he wasn’t a liability) over other “unknowns” and quite unimpressive QBs behind him (namely Brennan, Narcisse, or McMillan)

In hindsight, he might have benefited from a more fluid offensive system, but h exists in a time when LSU was offensively retarded.

Btw, he’s not on the LSU Mt Rushmore of QBs.
